Piosenous Thoughts

Ch 4. Mystery of the Capsule Solved!


(Ray's Pov)

I've never heard of any one hallucinating a turtle before, but then again, it is just a hallucination and I haven't exactly witnessed too many prior to, either.

But still, the fact that Kai's condition has worsened is very suspicious. Earlier he seemed looked like almost fully recovered but almost immediately after taking the medicine he had fever spikes and increasing hallucinations. (At least he quit trying to kill that kill the turtle)

I wonder… If that's why Kai was being so indecisive about taking the medicine, maybe it's poisoned!

I reached into my pocket for the pill bottle and removed another capsule. I spun the bottle and began comparing all the data, descriptions, and symptoms. After reading for a few minutes I looked up more confused than when I started.

Not only did the pills not look right but the last time I checked one of Kai's symptoms didn't include Embryonic Infection (for all you not medical savvy peps, that getting an infection due to pregnancy).

But thinking back, that might have been why Kai was so doubtful about taking the medicine. Did he know it wasn't right? When he wakes up I'll have to ask him about it. Currently he's out like a light, but I prefer this over his semi-conscious babbling. If his condition doesn't improve I think I'll worry myself sick.

I sigh and try to think how I could coax the answers out of Kai without disturbing him. Right now he needs what little rest he can get.

I gingerly sneaked across the room to Kai. He was sleeping despite the coughing; it was almost background noise to me seeing as it happened so frequently.

I knelt next to him leaning slightly over the edge of the bed. He was perfectly poised for a scene strait out of Sleeping Beauty. I smiled warmly, hoping that this time I would get my kiss. I leaned closer, carefully positioning myself so I didn't alarm him.

Mere centimeters away and Kai scoffed and sniffed judgingly at what ever was now floating through his imagination. He twisted away and settled back into dreamland (A/N: Things really aren't going his way, eh?).

"Come on, Ray, stick to the plan." I reminded myself and pouted at another missed opportunity.

I began scanning my memories to find any thing that would help me get Kai to talk without waking him. The only thing that came to mind was from a long time ago when a hypnotist came and was doing some post hypnotic suggestion therapy or somethin' like that…

I didn't really remember anything beyond that you're getting very sleepy thing and that wasn't much help since Kai was already asleep. I shrugged and leaned over Kai again, hovering over his ear so he heard my faint whispers.

"Kai, that pill… You're medicine, what was wrong with it?" I asked hushedly. (I really thought hushedly was a word…)

Kai fidgeted and flopped on to his back, half opening his weary eyes.

"Familiar…" He mumbled as his eyes rolled back into his head as he began to nod off (literally).

"My voice or the pill?" I said patting his cheek lightly to keep him semi-conscious.

"Both." He mumbled agitatedly as he was forced to stay in limbo between sleep and consciousness, then he mumbled something in Russian and tried again to resume sleeping.

"Russia." I said, think out loud about his mysterious past.

Kai suddenly became wide-awake and furious. He bolted out of bed towards the door, but his weakened body was unable to get him even half way there. He tried to force his stiffening body to move but it didn't yield and he collapsed, now drained mentally and physically from the endeavor.

I sprang up and flew to his side, as I scanned over him I noticed that his lips were producing inaudible words. I leaned in, hoping that they weren't totally mute.

I rested my hand on his back as I was nearly on the floor with him, Kai cringed slightly as he tried to move, only able to look up at me then started over a bit more loudly.

"Russia, that doc… doc… doctor." He murmured then switched to Russian, seemingly rambling but one undeniable and stunning word was recognizable from his sentence. 'BioVolt'.

Kai was suddenly motionless and void of any signs of life, but I'm more than positive I was too. I felt like a corpse in the morgue staring at another lifeless body, his creepy dead eyes staring unblinking at the cold floor below. I shook myself from his morbid trance and tried to push aside the frigid images of BioVolt that had resurfaced.

I was still nauseated by Kai's dead stare so the first thing I did was slide his eyelid closed. I gently cradled him in my arms, hoping that his memories of BioVolt weren't rampaging through his mind. I held him tighter until I felt his steady heartbeat and unwavering breath that told me he wasn't in pain.

I sighed a short breath of relief and placed him back bed, tucking him in with the same love a mother tucks in her child. I placed a dainty kiss on his forehead and stood up. I walked to my side and slid under the covers, tomorrow will be a headache, trying to get Kai to talk about his past is as easy and as much fun as stabbing yourself in the eye without any arms.
